EastEnders has revealed that one Albert Square resident will be left fighting for their life next week, after tensions boil over at the drugs den – and someone is stabbed! As the locals reel following recent events at Kojo Asare’s flat, there’s further horror when the dramatic showdown ends in tragedy. But who is the victim – and will they pull through?

“The stabbing will have huge consequences, and not just for the unfortunate person who takes the blade,” explains our EastEnders insider.

“If people thought the repercussions of what had been happening at Kojo and Harry’s place were over, they would be very wrong indeed…”

The tragic incident comes as many in the Square are still struggling in the wake of some shocking revelations.

After the police release Ravi and he returns home, loyal Priya confronts Harry and accuses him of lying to the authorities about Ravi’s involvement in the drugs ring.

However, she is in for a shock when Nicola insists that Ravi was indeed behind the whole thing. Shocked and furious, Priya scolds Ravi for breaking his promise to go straight and throws him out of the house.

Elsewhere, Junior and George are busy trying to support shaken Kojo, who desperately wants to return to his flat and get back to normal. Though it seems normal is a long way off for all of them…

“It’s when Okie sneaks back onto the Square that the big drama kicks off,” says our source. “At first, he tries to ask Ravi for help, but soon the cruel drug dealer decides to take another tack.

Kojo sneaks back to the flat, but Okie catches him and angrily demands to know what he told the police.

Okie instructs Kojo to text Harry, who’s seeking out a drug dealer as he struggles to control his withdrawal symptoms. The message from Kojo stops him in his tracks, and he heads to the flat to see his pal.

But when Harry then arrives, he is shocked to find Okie brandishing a knife at Kojo. As Harry tries to intervene, the resulting struggle sees him accidentally stab Okie!

“Kojo runs away from the flat while Harry and Okie fight it out,” reveals our insider. “He eventually finds Teddy, and the shocked dad rushes straight to the flat.

“Meanwhile, when George and Nicola both hear news, they too are desperate to find out what’s happening. But what is unfolding at the scene of the stabbing – and will Okie perish from his injuries?”
